Viti Crater

Reviewed By skyisblu - Montreal, Canada

An easy hike around the lip of the Viti crater, with its beautiful blue crater lake and steaming geothermal pipelines nearby. Don't be surprised if you suddenly feel like you are in the middle of a spy movie, seeking out the villain's lair! Take note: the trail will likely be muddy - REALLY muddy - so don't wear your good shoes. They will be caked in mud by the end of the hike! This is a good hike for all ages and skill levels, with no steep climbs or difficult terrain to navigate. Just follow the trampled path around the crater and back to the parking lot. Note that there are no services provided at this site.

Hearts in Akureyri

Reviewed By janiceb939 - Taylor, United States

Loved all of the traffic lights in Akureyri! Where else do you wish for a red light? We were told they were added in Iceland's economic downturn 2008 -2011 as a small way to cheer the citizens of Alkureyri. They sure made me smile!
